Re: connecting to postgresql

* Sun H Chi:

| anywhere on the server.  

What Linux distribution and what version of PostgreSQL is running on the
server? Is PostgreSQL installed from source or from a binary distribution?

Try this:

$ locate postgresql.conf

If all that gives you is an error message, try this (you may need to be root):

$ find /etc -name "postgresql.conf*"
